"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this motion and the decision being proposed that the matter be heard in Committee. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I happen to be one of the Members that have been proposed to be on the Committee. I wish to indicate that should the House decide that we go as proposed in the Motion, I will be among those who will urge the Committee to do its work in a professional way; not just for the County of Siaya, but also for the nation of Kenya. The issue that is coming before this Committee and before the House is not isolated to Siaya. It is an issue that we need to start having conversation about. The Senate being the big or the elder child in matters devolution, will sooner or later have to give direction on how best county governments can operate and how best we can have matters relating to relationships of governors and county deputy governors addressed. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will not say much because I have been proposed as a Member. I pledge that I will, as I have said, be among those who will be insisting that we work professionally in accordance with the laws and the rules that the House will give us. We will deliver a decision that this Senate will be proud of. I thank you."
